Biohazardous Waste. â refers to waste (e.g. body fluids or tissues) which has the risk of carrying human pathogens. Biohazardous Waste is usually generated at health care facilities or research facilities, and the term is used interchangeably with Medical Waste. â is the term OSHA uses to describe blood and body fluids and âOPIMâ (other potentially infectious material) as defined in the Bloodborne Pathogens regulation (BBP).
Low-level waste on the one hand, does not pose a significant radiation danger, whereas high-level waste on the other hand is potentially dangerous and needs to be properly contained and shielded from living organisms. The radiation dose describes the health hazard caused by radiation. The dose unit is Sievert (Sv).adioactive waste differs from other kinds of waste in that it emits energy in the form of radiation. This energy appears as alpha, beta and gamma radiation. Damage to living tissue can be caused if sufficient quantities of alpha, beta or gamma radiation interact with genetic material within the cells of our bodies.
